Summary
“I’m sorry,” Steve said. “I tried to make her wait until you woke up, I really did.” He tossed something in Mike’s direction, which Mike caught without thinking. “Happy birthday, by the way.”
Mike blinked. He’d completely forgotten, between Holly going missing, frantically searching for a way to get her back, and being possessed by Vecna himself. “Uh, thanks,” he said awkwardly, running a hand through his hair and looking down at what Steve had tossed at him. It was a Kit Kat bar. His favorite. He wondered how Steve knew that.
“Oh, right!” Robin darted forward and hugged him before he could react. He met Will’s eyes over her shoulder, but Will still had a hand covering his mouth and his expression was unreadable, aside from the red on his cheeks. “Happy birthday! There’s a surprise waiting for you in the kitchen. Anyway—mind reading. Totally a thing now, right?”
--
Through "the power of best friendship," as Robin puts it, Mike and Will develop a telepathic connection when Vecna tries to take Mike. Neither of them are really upset by it, especially when it gives them the opportunity to finally destroy Vecna once and for all.

Summary
"He's way too young for you," Mike muttered, whipping his head away from Robin and tucking his knees up to his chin. For some reason, he thought this conversation might go a lot worse for him if he looked her in the eye. "And you took him into the woods— where he got taken, I mean, I don't even—" and he shook his head, frowning deeper. "You went against his mom's orders! Can you not even respect his parents?"
A choked noise snapped Mike back to reality. "You— what?" Robin blinked at him, her mouth hanging slack. "I respect Joyce Byers. Very much."
With Will unconscious, Mike and Robin find time for a tense chat.

Summary
When Max is sent away for a month for advanced out of state hospital treatment, Lucas is left with way too much time and way too many feelings. So when he notices the unresolved tension simmering between Will and Mike, he decides to do something about it. But before he can even process what that truly entails, he’s already knee deep in secrets, feelings, and “friendships” that are a lot more complicated than he signed up for.
OR: What starts as a distraction from missing Max turns into the most complicated plan of Lucas’s life as he shifts from helping Will get over Mike to setting them up together (because he’s the bestest, most supportive friend ever, obviously!)

Summary
Lenora was supposed to be a fresh start. It’s away from Hawkins, away from the Upside Down and the painful memories that hung around the place. Lenora’s somewhere new. But Jonathan is struggling to find his place in the world, El is grappling with the loss of her powers and her identity, and Will is facing the unknown without the help of the party.
To make matters worse, it seems the powers his sister so desperately misses might be a family trait.

Summary
“It’s supposed to be terrifying,” Will sighed, trying to concentrate.
“Terror is subjective, my friend,” Richie replied, leaning over Will's shoulder, their heads practically touching. He smelled aggressively of Jovan Musk. “Look at the curve of that snout! It’s sensual! Tell me, Will, when you paint, do you prefer a brush that’s firm, or one that’s a little more… flexible?”
Will froze, charcoal poised mid-air. He caught Mike’s reflection in the glass of the Street Fighter cabinet. Mike was staring daggers, his jaw working furiously.
“I—It depends,” Will stammered, suddenly dizzy from a sudden hit of memory from that summer.
“Variety is the spice of life, Byers,” Richie purred, his voice low and conspiratorial. He didn't move an inch. “Just like variety in companionship. You shouldn’t limit yourself to brooding intellectuals who haven’t admitted they’re bisexual since the first A-Team movie.”
Mike slammed his palm against the side of the Street Fighter machine. CLANG!
OR just Richie trying to steal Mike's boyfriend.
